“The Will of the People” is a thing that does not exist but is used over and over again by political salespeople to convince each other that their position has unanimous support. It gets really funny and ironic when The Will of the People is trotted out to convince the very same People to vote a certain way.

Except Trump isn’t campaigning as the will of the people. The people see the establishment lined up against Trump and the people realize he speaks for their interests.

a big part of this team’s success has been about field position, with the help of special teams play.

Punting and punt coverage….. Hekker has pinned opponents; yesterday 2 punts in the 4th qtr pinned AZ inside the 20 (1 inside the 10) I believe Hekker hasn’t punted a Touchback this year yet… one of those punts went to waste with the horse collar tackle, but ultimately resulted in an INT.

Greg Zuerlein 5 for 5 in FGs thus far….. and perfect in XPs……he was difference vs Seattle and TB…. yesterday, his points were just as important.

Defense played great… came up big….. I think Tru Jo’s int was inconclusive and shouldn’t have been overturned…. anyway, TJ put the game way with a fair catch int to end the game….

Arizona’s defense is still tough and keyed on the Gurley, but the Rams still need to put drives together to consume the clock and put games away.

Fisher needs to use his replay “get out of jail free cards” a bit more wisely……

Yes, good points.

At what point this season do the Rams redshirt Goff the entire season, no matter what?

If the Rams get through game 12, and are in the playoff picture, would they switch to Goff if they though he was ready? I don’t know. I don’t think so. I have to think it’s by mid-season. Game 8 or 9, or we don’t see him unless Keenum gets injured.

Thats reasonable. $tanK can’t pass up playoff revenue.

Can’t disagree.

That should be titled Chart of the Gullible.

Now it’s reported that the NY Times didn’t pay the tax either. Hypocrites.

Typical NY Times BS. “may have” doesn’t cut it. Terrible reporting. Much like their lies about Trump and the women he dated. If he’s following the law then don’t blame him, change the law. This story boils down to he followed the law. Let me know when he deducts his used undies on his taxes or when in office he rents out the Lincoln Bedroom or steals the White House china like the Clinton Crime Syndicate.

I can only speak as to why I never watch games anymore in real time. Instead, I watch replays with the NFL pass on Apple TV. Several reasons:

No commercials. There are way too many stoppages in play. The commercials go on forever, and most are bad. Refs take too long to make decisions. All of that slows the game down.

Replay games allow me to rewind and really enjoy the subtle stuff about the game.

I play fantasy football, so I watch the Redzone for the highlights and stats. I also follow along on my ESPN app. My local games are always the Redskins, Ravens, or Panthers. I only watch those teams if the Rams are playing them.

Most commentators are bad. I like some, but most talk too much about issues not related to football. Case in point, the kneeling thing going on now. I don’t care. I watch football for football, not political/social stances being pursued by a bunch of millionaires that are paid to play a game. Turning down the volume helps.

Sideline reporters. Too many of them. Yes, the ladies are pretty, but they’re not needed.

I think the biggest problem the NFL has is supply and demand. The demand for football is still extremely high, but the supply is everywhere. I can watch football on my TV, laptop, desktop, phone, and every bar in Richmond. There must be a thousand sports bars here, all packed with dozens of televisions. There is no reason for me to sit through a 3 hour game that consists of about 45 minutes of actual playing time, when I can watch snippets all day on so many different devices. And I can avoid all commercials and non-football related BS.

Edited because of words and things.

Good points made there. I’d add that the TV broadcasters lack knowledge about the teams. The broadcasters are nomads not associated with any one team. That lack of familiarity has to hurt ratings.

Not sure why, but I have been seeing alot of commercials with him in them. I hope will not affect his game. It is alright for an occasional one, but I worry being in LA could get into Todd Gurleys head. It is LA, Hollywood, and such.

Well…name an NFL player who did a lot of commercials and it DID affect his game.

Seems to me that really doesn’t happen.

I love this Samantha Bee staff picture. This is what they think about Trump after his “fat-shaming” of Alicia Machado.

Machado’s done a great job of shaming herself on TV. While screwing a fellow contestant of a reality show she says

” ‘ Oh your d*** my love, what a tasty d***, your d*** is divine”

That is some appetite she has for sausage. But that is Trump’s fault?

He’s trying to win by getting more votes than Hildabeast and he’s been exceptional at it. Even with all the usual democrat vote fraud and now with Hildabeast exceptional level of cheating by democrats within their failed big cities Trump is still going to win. The desperation and now panic on the left is gratifying.

bnw, wake up. If there is fraud in this election, it will be perpetrated on behalf of Trump, not against him. His buddy Putin has been trying to tilt the election in his favor for months and months, and he’s had a lot of help via wikileaks.

Wake up its so obvious that it is a red herring. Putin has nothing to do with this election other than the establishment’s fear mongering meant to get into a war with Russia. The US is trying to goad Russia into a war. The leaked emails were from the murdered DNC staffer not the russians.
